Been racing and building motors and doing all aspects of auto repair for 35 years and getting distracted cost me time and frustration! Slow down and if you get distracted or side-tracked, take a minute to not assume anything.

That's why most manuals say check rotation after each rod/piston is assembled into the engine. A way of double checking yourself.

When I am building an engine I turn off the phone and lock the doors. I have see and done many things incorrectly do to what I call yapping when I should have been focusing. Another great video Kevin!

Well I just found out what is happening to me.Thanks for the video.Kicking myself in the ass.

[@yzScott]

The big lesson, if you're assembling a small block and things ever get other than "buttery smooth" stop and find out why.

[@lawrencedeaninvestments2171]

Thank you so much for your video it was hard to find out but when I seen the lower and upper I had to figure it out and I got the right answer from CleviteI but I just had to double check

You better check the bearing itself . I have seen the stamped wrong as far as upper and lower.

Ragin Cajun thanks so much for your comments! So true!!! Go fast, go straight! Be Safe!!

[@rensta6701]

i think i did this cause my rotating assembly binds up only when i put the pistons in , but spins free just the crank?

[@KevinWilsonSBC]

Bobby Ren thanks so much for your comments! Yep... sounds like it or bearings are undersized. Go fast, go straight! Be Safe!!

[@matthewreynolds3393]

Will a motor still turn over by hand if a few rods are in backwards?

[@KevinWilsonSBC]

Matthew Reynolds thanks so much for your comments! In my experience, no, but you need to visually make sure they are all in correctly for sure. Go fast, go straight! Be Safe!!

[@Wardaddy1124]
